Property  as  "replacement property" to  accomplish  a  tax  free
exchange,   Buyer   acknowledges  that   Seller   has   made   no

thereon by Buyer respecting the legal or tax implications of  the
transactions contemplated hereby.  Buyer further represents  that
it has sought and obtained such third party advice and counsel as
it  deems  necessary in regards to the tax implications  of  this
transaction.

      Buyer  wishes  to  novate/assign the ownership  rights  and
interest  of  this  Purchase Agreement  to  Guarantee  Escrow  of

from  Seller  and  selling  the  ownership  interest  in  subject
property  to  Buyer  under  the  same  terms  and  conditions  as
documented in this Purchase Agreement.  Buyer asks the Seller  to
cooperate  in the perfection of such an exchange at no additional
cost  or expense or delay in time.  Buyer hereby indemnifies  and
holds  Seller  harmless from any claims and/or actions  resulting
